A TRAVERS STORY.
What the Prince of Jokers Said to :.
Space Reporter.

New YORK, March 50
William R. Travers, whose death was lately
announced, was great favOrite among news
paper men. He was always ready to grant
an interview and always had a good story
TO tell. In Union club matters he was
the first member sought by representatives
of the press. If he could not give the facts
of the story tine reporter was after he always
gave him something to write about. When
the proposition was made to organize junior
Union club he took infinite pains to keep the
Young men who were detailed on the assign
ment informed about the progress of the
scheme, and obtained facts for us which il
would have been impossible for us to get at
except through member of the club.
Il know it is not you; it is your paper, he
said to me one day when l apOlogized for ask
ing some questions which, though / was fol-
lowing the instructions of my city editor,
struck me as being impudeutly personal, and
he gave me the information.
On another occasion he suddenly broke off
in the middle of an interview with the ques-
ton: "S-say, young m-Inan, are you writ
ing on s-salary or sp-space:'
4rm on space" replied, somewhat mys'i-
fed.
"Oh, Lord! Then my st-stutter will
all 90 in" he exclaimed in comical despair.
